Mueller would be justified as drumph and his minions have been threatening him.
And Mueller probably has one or two flippers ready to save their necks.
Its a long shot I know but relish the prospect.

(21,786 posts)most Constitutional scholars agree that a sitting President has broad immunity from criminal prosecution. You can indict a president after impeaching them and removing them from office, but not while in office.

He'll want to see if he can flip the folks on the lower rungs of the organization and Flynn JR fits that bill. If General Flynn hasn't yet agreed to cooperate, Mueller could go for his son to leverage that testimony. That said, my long shot guesses are Carter Page and Roger Stone. My fantasy indictment at this point would be Don Jr. THAT would be lovely wouldn't it?

(2,050 posts)I also think it may be jr as he's right out in the open on his glee to get material from the Russians on Hillary, he was ecstatic about it and it seems they have lots of evidence.
But then the flynns are a big target also, and manafort is so deep in this he can't escape pardon or not.
For the first time in a loooong time I have a smile on my face you can't remove with a two by four.
It's going to be epic....

The evidence given by these underlings has to be compelling enough that even the Trumpanzees in Congress call for impeachment.
